Replication from the Site Replication Service on an Exchange Server 2003 computer to an Exchange Server 5.5 computer stops, and event IDs 1171 and 1082 are logged in the Application log (893608)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 Enterprise Edition
  • Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 Standard Edition
  • Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5

SYMPTOMS

In your organization, replication from the Site Replication Service (SRS) on a Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 computer to a Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5 computer stops.

Additionally, if diagnostic logging is set to Maximum on the Exchange Server 5.5 computer, the following events may be logged in the Application log.

Event 1

Event ID: 1171
Event Type: Error
Event Source: MSExchangeDS
Event Category: Internal Processing
Description: Exception e0010004 has occurred with parameters -1026 and 0 (internal ID 206041c).

Event 2

Event ID: 1082
Event Type: Information
Event Source: MSExchangeDS
Event Category: Replication
Description: Replication warning: The directory replication agent (DRA) couldn't update object <OBJECT Distinguished Name> with changes made by directory <DIRECTORY Distinguished Name> because of error 22. The directory will try to update the object later. If this condition persists, try to free more disk space or stop and restart this Microsoft Exchange Server computer.

CAUSE

This problem occurs because the Extensible Database Engine in Exchange 2003 creates packed pages objects for replication that are larger than 4 kilobytes (KB). However, the Extensible Database Engine in Exchange Server 5.5 (ESE97) supports replication of packed pages objects of only up to 4 KB.

RESOLUTION

You must install this hotfix on the Exchange 2003 SRS computer.
